Filter by:The Covid-19 pandemic has led to the postponement and cancellation of elective orthopaedic surgeries worldwide. These delays to elective procedures combined with ongoing demand have led to increasingly longer waiting list times. This cross-sectional pilot study aims to investigate the change in patients' perceptions of knee pain and function since being waitlisted for surgery. A bespoke survey will be administered to eligible patients over the phone from Trafford General Hospital, Manchester. The survey will also investigate the coping mechanisms and the preventative measures patients are taking to manage symptoms during the pandemic, and question what kinds of communication and support patient would like to be offered whilst waiting for treatment. This study will improve clinicians' and researchers' understanding of how patients are coping with symptoms during this pandemic, and provide information on how to better support patients who are waiting for knee surgery. This information could be used to enhance orthopaedic care during, and in the aftermath, of this pandemic. The information gathered in this study may also be used to inform a larger multi-centre study.
The main objective of this study is to compare, with a minimum follow-up of 5 years, the prevalence of femoro-tibial osteoarthritis after an isolated ACL ligamentoplasty or after an ACL ligamentoplasty combining ACL and ALL.
This is a pilot study involving a hybrid in-person + telerehabilitation intervention for rural adults with knee osteoarthritis. The primary purpose is to demonstrate feasibility and safety of the RAPTOR program, and the secondary purpose is to estimate clinical effectiveness of the RAPTOR program on participants' pain, function, and quality of life.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a permanent embolic (Embosphere Microspheres) for embolization of the geniculate artery for the treatment of moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis.
Dorsal root ganglion stimulation (DRG-S) may be able to treat mechanical pain caused by tissue injury or damage such as trauma or arthritis in addition to pain caused by nerve dysfunction or injury. The purpose of this study is to determine if dorsal root ganglion stimulation (DRG-S) can effectively treat arthritic pain of the knee.
Comparison of the early clinical and radiological results and patient satisfaction of the mobile and fixed insert unicondylar knee prostheses routinely used in the clinic.
This study aims to evaluate the patients' mobility and quality of life prior to their total knee replacement surgery and their progress pre-operatively and 6 months post-operatively using the smart activity tracker. We hypothesize that mobility limitation presents a strong correlation with reduced quality of life.
The main objective of this multicentric, prospective and interventional study is to assess the feasibility of multimodal prehabilitation in patients aged 75 years or older with surgical indication for coxarthrosis or severe gonarthrosis
This study will investigate whether the recovery of muscle function of total knee arthroplasty is accelerated with the use of the gekoTM device along with its effect on reducing symptoms such as oedema and inhibition of the muscle function.
The French Society of Rheumatology cannot rule on the value of intra-articular injections of PRP due to the lack of hindsight and insufficient data. In fact, the injection protocols are very heterogeneous in terms of preparation method, the presence or not of leukocytes, the number of centrifugations, the volume injected, the ultrasound guidance, which makes it difficult to analyze the literature. The investigator objective is therefore to evaluate the effectiveness of combined injections of PRP and hyaluronic acid.
